By JJ Grey and Mofro

Intro em D am em
em D
That stormy morning felt like a dream
am em
he told me then of what he'd seen
em D
A child a man in times gone bad
am em
faces of stone lined hard and sad
em D
One Sunday day they all came home
am em
all that they had was burned and gone
em D
The timber men their pistols gleamed
am em
a lifetime lost on Palastine

em D
He made a stand he would not run
am em
he dropped the hoe and picked up the gun
em D
And then one night he disappeared
am em
it fed the worst of all their fears
em D
They found him quiet high in a tree
am em
he flew away from Palastine
em D
Then came the day they moved away
am em
more gunmen came they could not stay
em D
To Glen St. Mary to Olustee
am em
but we still dream of Palastine
